Sleepy and then some

I’m really sleepy this morning. REALLY sleepy. as in I reset my alarm clock for 10 minutes after it first went off, only to be awakened by my husband 20 minutes later because I totally slept through the second alarm. REALLY sleepy, as in I fell asleep in the drive-through when I stopped to get my breakfast. REALLY sleepy, as in I’m having major issues holding my head up this morning.

I also have a headache. Perhaps it’s because I’m sleepy. Okay, I have to face it. I’m not sleepy. I’m at least 20 light years past sleepy. It’s not a pleasant sensation when one is at work and has to get things done and look busy even after everything that needs to be done is done. Fortunately, I have a doctor’s appointment this afternoon, which means I’m out of here at 1:30. Unfortunately, because I had to make up the time for the doctor’s appointment, I’m not taking a lunch which, today, means I’m not taking a nap. So I’ll possibly fall asleep in the waiting room. And when I get home, I think I’m going to go to sleep for a while.

Why so tired? Well, probably a combination of factors. I haven’t gotten a good night’s sleep all week this week. I’ve had very intense vivid dreams that I’ve been unable to forget. And I’ve been waking up around 130 or 2 and then being intermittently awake from then on until I had to get up. So I’m pretty tired already. And then yesterday I lost my balance as I was getting into the car, and I managed to throroughly whack the side of my head, and got a lulu of a headache. It hurt. A Lot. So last night I knew I wanted to get an uninterrupted night of sleep, so I took a sleeping pill. But I took it a bit too late, because it takes a while for the pill to kick in, which means I probably didn’t get enough sleep. Hence the sleepiness today.

You wanted to know all that, didn’t you? What other embarrassingly personal information can I pass on? I just thought of something, but it’s embarrassing enough that I think I’ll keep it to myself. I hope you have a great weekend, and you may now return to your regularly scheduled day.
